| | | | Magic expect to meet with free agent Paul George | European invasion shows American basketball is fundamentally flawed | Angel City looks vulnerable, but Pride still on alert | | | | Orlando on Saturday made moves to create space in order to maximize their available cap space to improve its roster this summer. The Magic will have their chance to make their pitch to Paul George. | | | | | The problem isn't that the NBA is drafting more and more international players; the problem is that fewer and fewer American players have the fundamental skills to play in the NBA. | | | | | Just because Orlando didn't pick up the option on Joe Ingles and Moe Wagner doesn't mean they don't factor in the future. They can renegotiate a new deal that's more cap-friendly. | | | | | Improvement of UF's offensive line will be critical to the success of Graham Mertz. He was sacked 31 times and rarely attacked down the field. | | | | | KJ Jefferson gives the Knights an experienced quarterback to help navigate Year 2 in the Big 12. | | | | | Playing cross-country games is always an issue, but Orlando is 2-0-0 at Angel City, which consistently has one of the largest crowds in NWSL and toughest environments to play in. | | | | | Trading the defenseman, who is signed through 2031, saved the Lightning an annual $8.5 million salary-cap hit, and they also dealt forward Tanner Jeannot to Los Angeles. | | | | | Yandy Díaz went 0 for 4, ending his Tampa Bay-record 20-game hitting streak. He hit a 109-mph liner to first in the eighth. | | | | | He's still expected to return to the Lakers on a new contract. | | | | | If you're ranking local championship celebrations the Panthers are No. 1 and there's not a close second. They took the party to the people in a manner no team has. Next, the party goes to their parade on Sunday in Fort Lauderdale. Then reality hits with NHL free agency beginning on Monday. | | | |
